Abstract of talk: Research Support Services have moved away from a traditional model of providing reference service confined to the library building alone. An academic library is heart of any thriving university and in the current scenario of exponential growth of information on Internet, it is absolutely critical to think about library marketing, patron outreach, student oriented library building, and collaborating with other student services departments while designing and developing effective Research Support Services. This presentation includes examples of Research Support Service activities at FGCU library and includes several examples of collaboration between liaison librarians, extended faculty and university administration. And, as a bonus, presenter also discusses successful strategies for conducting successful e-trials for new resources.
